The reason why I posted what I did; It's not about helping friends; it's about 'helping a couple of people, because he can't keep up making them by hand anymore' I don't know how many cars you guys converted by hand, but I can do 1-2 conversions per week, and if i can't keep up, that means I am doing a shipload of conversions per month. And that exactly IS Mikes business, and he is asking information on HIS forum.

and instead of mixing up with your personal feelings/opinions towards us, you could have replied to the thread a bit more on-topic (since Cembom initial question isn't really answered by any of us regarding the mill) and I would have preferred if you guys discussed this matter with me/us by PM. As you both know we are reasonable persons and do nothing without a certain reason.

Now Cembom; for your questions;

Running a Mill is nice, but you need other things than the mill alone; the material you work on, the tools you need to use the mill. (such as a good machine-vice, bits, material to work with. Because the normal stock aluminum you can buy on the corner of the street doesn't give the nicest results in machining. You might need to look for another supplier for the aluminum since the normal aluminum will leave nothing but ugly grooves/burrs

I can guarantee you, once you have a mill (and a contructive mind) you will be using it all the way.
